#NO CHARGE TO KIDS UNDER 2 AT TIME OF CHECK IN#
At my house close to Bellagio, you will live an authentic travel experience in a relaxing atmosphere at an affordable price. Ideal for families with kids, group of friends or couples. Big apartment with 11 beds, 2 cots and 2 cribs. Garden, outdoor area with tables, chairs, sun loungers, sun umbrella and BBQ. Playground for kids. Free WiFi and private parking.

HEATING: in the cold season (autumn / winter ) and when it is necessary, the heating is charged separately and should be settled by cash at the check out. You will pay only what you will use (Eur 1 per cubic meter) . Generally speaking, as we are in the hill, we turn off the heating in May and turn on it in September.
Great place to stay for relax at the beach and for hiking and cycling lovers. Excellent place also for team building. Situated in a quiet and friendly village 10 minutes’ drive from Bellagio and a few minutes away from the famous church "Madonna del Ghisallo" plenty of famous old bikes and the Fausto Coppi monument, in the hills of Lake Como, between lake and mountains in the middle of nature, big apartment on the ground floor with private entrance. 2 big bedrooms for a total of 11 beds, 2 cots for toddlers and 2 cribs for babies available on request. Wide and cozy living room with big sofa and kitchenette fully accessoriated, TV, free WiFi, bathroom with hydromassage shower, washing machine, garden, outdoor area with tables, chairs, sun loungers, sun umbrella and BBQ. Big and free private parking. For families with kids, a lot of outdoor areas plenty of toys and, inside the house a lot of toys for all ages.
The village of Barni is in an ideal location for exploring both the lake and surrounding hills and mountains. A part the visit of Bellagio (it is a must!), Barni is an ideal site for an active holiday.
My guests love experiencing life in a real village with essential amenities close to hand. The locals are friendly and happy to have foreign people all around! I am very happy that all my guests have commented how homely the apartment is and how my tips and suggestions have been helpful to transform and holiday into an “unforgettable holiday”!
All my guests love the authentic village location. This way you get the best of both worlds : world famous Bellagio (top level destination for luxury holidays) very close and the almost rustic charm of Barni, typical Italian little village. During your stay, you will feel you are living in a real community, not just visiting as a tourist…this is the main difference between an holiday and a “true holiday”.
In the village there is 1 restaurant and 1 bar within easy walking distance. Self-catering is no problem as the kitchen is perfectly equipped and there is a well-stocked grocery a few steps away.
The house is in a strategic position for relax, hiking, walking in the nature and swimming in the lake. Wild nature and great hikes surrounds the area.
At your arrival, you will find the house cleaned and perfumed, the beds made up and a set of fresh towels for each guest.
The house is spacious, bright, cozy, welcoming for groups of friends, big families, couples, but to make one's stay very special is my personal knowledge of the area with the opportunity to suggest to my guests (based on their age and interests) sites, hiking trails, beaches of the lake, picnic areas, mountain huts, characteristic restaurants not mentioned in the usual tourist circuits, to explore the charming lake of Como like a local, spending less money and having more fun! I will be happy to share with You my personal knowledge of the area with tips and suggestions, but in addition to this, you will also find inside the house a lot of books and leaflets about where to go and what to do in the neighborhood.
The house is kid’s friendly. Kid-tested, parent approved! In the evening, some deers from the bush come to eat and, as often we host a family of pony or donkeys in the garden, our guests can cuddle and feed them. For kids (but also for adults!), it is an extraordinary experience.

Great host. Greeted us with care and attention, shared all local info, gave good suggestions based on our interests. The taverna itself is very clean with comfy beds and pleasant linens. The location is very quiet in a sleepy town. Walking distance to a couple local shops and restaurant. Kitchen area is a bit small and could use better quality pots and pans (host is already aware) but everything is very functional. We enjoyed a large dining area and large table. Getting places like Bellagio will take some time (consult (SENSITIVE CONTENTS HIDDEN) maps) and the roads are windy so be prepared to do some driving around. The good thing is that overall, the location is pretty good for going into different directions. The host lives upstairs (separate entrance) so you won't have complete privacy but we didn't have any real need for it so I can not complain about it. The good part she's always around if you need anything. So 5 stars it is.

We stayed at 'Betty's' place for 5 nights with our 2 year-old twins and it was brilliant for us for so many reasons. Betty made us feel right at home the minute we pulled up, and made a huge effort to help us plan out our days to perfection, based on her local knowledge. The location is in a gorgeous hillside farming village - not another tourist in sight - which made it really special. On our first night a herd of deer came to the house to graze, and the kids fell in love with the resident pony and her tiny foal. The place is completely kitted out for families with small kids...all the equipment is there, and there's enough toys and play stuff to keep kids happy for hours and hours. It was just a fabulous stay all round, and we left feeling like we'd made a friend in Betty. Highly recommended. has been well documented in the other reviews, which I can wholeheartedly confirm.

Elisabetta and her Familiy are a very kindly people. With their suggestions we passed a very good time in barni and the area of como. Also the accommodation was proper and well cleaned up. I suggest this house to every family because of the calm ambiance and nature friendly area.

I stayed here for a night while visiting Lake Como. The location of the house is very useful as it is 15-20 minutes to Bellagio which had lots of shops and restaurants. The house is in a secluded spot and has a beautiful view of the mountains. It was very peaceful and I would recommend if you are looking for something outside the centre. The only drawback is the shower as it was one where you had to sit down, and my taller boyfriend had a bit of difficulty! Other than that, it was a great stay!

Luigi and his son were great hosts. He warmly welcomed us in this beautiful house located right on the lakeside. We were advised about places to visit. The flat in the house is really well renovated, with beautiful materials and furnitures, and fully furnished. It has a balcony and a garden, where the car can be parked. The beach is 10 meters away from the house. The location is ideal and very central to visit the lake region, Milano, Bergamo... I would definitely recommend this place, everything was perfect.

Michele's place is exactly as described but the views are better! The house is bright and comfortable, the terraces are private and spacious. We enjoyed the fireplace, the kayak. The kitchen is well equipped. The immediate area is gorgeous and the lake literally is around the corner. The next door supermarket is convenient. In my head I'm already planning my next visit...

I loved this space. It is an ideal place to stay if wanting to explore the Lake Como region. The studio layout was a little difficult for a larger group since privacy was hard to come by, however the scenic views were worth it (imo). The wifi was a bit problematic at times and the bells blew up at 7 in the morning. Be mindful if you have sensitive sleepers in the group or those that need constant wifi. In my opinion, Michele's place was perfect to unwind, explore, and take in the beauty of the surroundings from the warmth of a cozy home.

EXCELLENT! The apartment is just excellent: quiet village, tastefully decorated apartment, amazing terrasse with lake view, ...great place for escape. Michele as the host is very responsive. Although we have not had a chance to meet in person, he organized everything to make our stay comfortable and careless. All together makes this as a " gold standard" for airbnb place.

The rental consists of 2 levels with every comfort (not wireless). The house is very spacious. The view from the house is beautiful. The lower part is occupied by the host, but each part is completely independent (no common part). The garden is large, well appointed and comfortable. The house is in the hills just minutes from Bellagio and provides a panoramic view of the lake and mountains from both the dining room as a large balcony upstairs. Host pleasant despite the language barrier. Great stay at Lago di Como. We recommend strongly.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Gary's house : great location, wonderful views, stylish decoration and furniture, different terraces to enjoy sunshine, shadow and views across the day. Local food store offer excellent products ( bread, meat, fruits&vegs). Gary and his wife have been excellent hosts. Lago Di Como at its top !

You will live your holiday hidden in an original 70s stone house...surrounded by green wood and peace.
Located south-west , just in front of Como lake and the beautiful Grigne mountains. The villa was published by Abitare .

Rebecca and her father Umberto made us feel very welcome at their beautiful home which is a real period piece as it was built in 1975 by an architect, and the interior still reflects this time period. We enjoyed the house very much with the great views over lake Como. We also enjoyed the surroundings, we were surprised to discover small beaches in walking distance that were quite empty, even in the middle of tourist season! We would definitely come again!

Dario, his family, and friends were all extremely welcoming. His home and the guest house are very beautiful and charming. The proximity to Lake Como and the beaches makes this location the best around! Plenty to see and do in Mandello del Lario, all within a 10 minute walk. Restaurants, bars, and shops are all within reasonable walking distances. The train station runs right through downtown Mandello del Lario which makes arriving even easier. Truly gives you a genuine small-town Italian feeling. You won't find a nicer place to stay in Northern Italy!!! I will be staying here again when I return to Mandello del Lario!

This place is unbelievable beautiful! In nice, quiet location with huge terrace right on the lake where you can sit and admire breathtaking views over the lake and mountains - absolutely fantastic! Apartment is comfortable,clean and contains everything you need including two bikes which are just perfect to get around the town. Antonio is a warm and welcoming person,very friendly and helpful - a five star airbnb host! Thank you so much for sharing your lovely place! We had wonderful time & did not want to leave... Grazie, grazie mille!!! Kasia&Kristof

Kasia 2016-06-17T00:00:00Z

The house is perfect for staying at the como lake! The location is great, quiet and in walking distance of the centre of the town. The house is great! It has everything you need and the view at the lake is amazing! And so the sunbathing platform at the lake in front of the house also is. Antonio is very helpful. He picked us up from the train station and gave us an umbrella because it was going to be a rainy day, very thoughtfull! We would totally recommend this place!

Mai2016-09-23T00:00:00Z

If you are thinking of visiting Lake Como, this is definitely the place to stay! Photos don't show how beautiful the cottage really is. It is truly a gem. Antonio is an amazing host. To say he's helpful and thoughtful would be complete understatement. He was always willing to give us a ride as we didn't have a car and was there for us when we needed help. The town of Mandello del Lario is beautiful and people are really friendly. It's a perfect place to stay if you look for authentic holiday experience. Massive thank you to Kikera Tobacco and coffee staff, you guys rock! And to the guy at Eni petrol station for putting the bike seat down for us. And to the owners of Colombo Massimo bar for free food!

At less than 5 minutes on foot you can reach a small beach on the right or "Lido" of Mandello on the left, with beach, deck chairs, umbrellas, showers, bar and children's play area nearby . Shops, pharmacy, bars and restaurants are very close to the apartment, at 10-15 minutes on foot.

Koimme itsemme erittäin tervetulleeksi ja hyvin vastaanotetuiksi. Saimme kaiken tarvitsemamme informaation ja asiointi sujui englanniksi oikein mainiosti. Asunto oli viihtyisä ja erittäin siisti ja sijaistsi hyvällä paikalla. Thanks Alvaro, we felt us very wellcome and welltreated. Our host Alvaro spoke good English and gave us useful information for the questions we had. The apartment was very cozy, clean and well located. We enjoyed our staying a lot. Do recommend if looking for a place to stay next to the lake Como.

We had a wonderful stay at Alvaro's home. He made us feel part of his family, not just random people staying at his house. He went out of his way to make us feel welcomed. The house was equipped with everything you need for everyday, very clean, nice, and accommodating. Excellent! Thank you, Alvaro.

it s been a charming perfect place to stay... so close with all ferries to the lake way of life... what a confortable place to stay... Marzia was very kind and ready to help us... the garage box is really a bug plus.... and nothing is better than an Italian coffee in the morning at the bar near the flat... watching the lake and boats... highly recommending :)

andrea2016-08-16T00:00:00Z

The flat correspond fully to the description and it was even better than we thought as we were welcomed as "friends" by Celeste (Marzia's daughter) and her Grandma ;-) The flat was very clean and tidy with all we need to fell confortable and spend easy time. We enjoyed also the kitchen with all the necessary to cook. We have loved the place "Mandello del lario" as it's an authentic town with lots of facilities to spend great times with kids : lake, playground, skate park, ice creams ... It was easy to take a boat and visit the Coma lake.

Very exquisite appartment, good located. it's only 3 minutes walk to the beach. and nearby there is a playground for the kids. The host is very nice.Mazia's daughter and mother welcomed us, and give us all the information we needed, and also they provided a private garage for parking our car.Thanks a lot! Btw:The icecream shop downstairs is so nice! 非常棒的房子,靠近湖边,风景很美。3分钟可以走到沙滩,旁边还有一些可供儿童玩耍的游乐设施。适合自驾,100米远处有私家车库可以停车。 楼下有冰激凌店,味道不错,价格很便宜。

Nice apartment in the historical area of Mandello del Lario, just in face on the lake: apartment with living room , kitchen , stylish bathroom and spacious room ... perfect location for visiting the Lake Como and the beauty of Lombardy !

The apartment's strength is its UNIQUE POSITION point .
The entrance is located just under the arcades, which make Riva Granda an exclusive insight into the whole lake Como.

A tour under the characteristic arcades and the narrow streets of the old town, the sunset over the lake, the sweet sound of the waves , the fish freshly caught by fishermen ... that and more you can experience in our fascinating country !

Carla and her family were amazing hosts. Carla was very prompt with answering all of my questions before our trip. The flat was very large, clean, and comfortable. The flat is perfectly located right on the lake in Mandello del Lario. We are already planning to return. Highly Recommend!!

William2016-06-22T00:00:00Z

Carla was so communicative and helpful every step of the way. The location is divine and such a spacious apartment. We truly felt like locals in Mandello. It's an easy point to take the ferry to Bellagio for a day trip and super close to St. Moritz, Switzerland if you're by car. The apartment is walkable to a ton of the ferry pickup/drop off point, and to restaurants and bakeries, so perfect if you don't have a car. The kitchen is well-stocked, although we did not cook a thing. There are heaps of information brochures, maps, etc, so you can easily plan your outings. We can't wait to return.
